MPP Lecce delivered remarks.
“Iranian-Canadians came to this country in search of freedom, democracy and a better life for their children, and they have strengthened our country and made York Region an even better place to live, work and raise a family,” said MPP Lecce. “Our government is proud to support young leadership, including from many hard working newcomers to Canada. I wish all who celebrate a happy and prosperous Nowruz.”
